About Tim
Tim Crader
Yacht Broker | Brewer Yacht Sales
Tim Crader’s lifelong relationship with the sea began aboard his father’s classic 23-foot Chris-Craft wooden cabin cruiser. This early introduction ignited a passion that has evolved into decades of hands-on marine expertise and a sophisticated command of luxury vessels. An active yachtsman, Tim has owned and operated an impressive personal fleet over the years. Having commanded pedigree names such as Lyman, Sea Ray, Viking, and Owens Concorde, he currently captains a 43-foot Riviera Sport Fish. This continuous, firsthand ownership grants him an intimate knowledge of vessel mechanics, onboard systems, and the exacting standards expected by discerning clients.
Representing Brewer Yacht Sales, Tim delivers premier brokerage services across the exclusive "Gold Coast" markets of Southwest Connecticut and South Florida. His territory includes Greenwich, Stamford, Darien, Norwalk, Westport, and Fairfield in Connecticut, alongside Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Palm Beach, Jupiter, and Boca Raton in Florida.
